This small display has a short write up and a few pictures going over the history and importance of Baddow Pass.

The Holmes County Trail is a wide, well groomed trail that was built with the Amish community in mind. As such you can expect horse and buggy traffic along the trail, as well as plenty of "evidence" that the horses may leave behind. This isn't usually a problem, but if you're riding during the autumn you'll need to take care to avoid droppings that are covered by leaves.

Mount Vernon, named after George Washington's famous estate, is a charming small town full of historic buildings. The Woodward Opera House is perhaps the most famous of all, as it is the oldest such Opera House in the USA. Along with the beautiful buildings and parks you'll find plenty of restaurants, shops, and accommodations that invite you to stay a while.

Take a moment at the trailhead to top up your water and have a look at the historic locomotives.

The historic stone arch was built in 1874 as a bridge over the old Cleveland, Mt. Vernon, and Delaware Railroad line. If you look closely you can see the signatures left by the masons who shaped the stones and built the bridge.

This 370-foot covered bridge began as a railroad bridge in the 1920s. It wasn't covered until 1998, at which point it became the second longest covered bridge in Ohio, and the third longest in the USA.

There is a trailhead here with Porty potty.

The Holmes County Trail is a 23-mile paved trail that travels through Ohio's Amish country. This path was the first path in the country designed to accommodate Amish buggies.
